It was a Birmingham Brother Rice reunion on the college football field last Saturday afternoon when the Central Michigan Chippewas went on the road and shocked the Big Ten's Iowa Hawkeyes 32-31.

 

In other words, Iowa starting wide receiver Kevonte Martin-Manley was facing off with some of his former Rice teammates in CMU's standout linebacker trio of Justin Cherocci, Shamari Benton and Timmy "Jumbo" Hamilton. 

TRUE Frosh O-Lineman Dylan Anderson, also former Warriors GRID GLADIATOR ,was on the field for CMU too.

PRETTY COOL, HUH?!!!!

They should have considered painting the end zones ORANGE&BLACK!!

Let's look at a stat breakdown;

Martin-Manley caught the first touchdown of the game, a 10-yard scoring pass to add to his five grabs for 65 yards on the day.

After KMM's opening TD of the nip-and-tuck affair, Cherocci, Benton and Hamilton took control of the Rice Bragging Rights Royale.

Cherocci, who led the state in tackles as a junior and senior at Rice, headlined the Chipps defensive effort on Saturday, registering a team-high seven wrap-ups. Benton had five wrap-ups and a fumble recovery and Hamilton had a pair of tackles as well.
